"Inflammation is a key factor in the development of atherosclerois. As LDL cholestorol accumulates in the arterial wall, it undergoes chemical changes and signals to endothelial cells to latch onto white blood cells circulating in the blood. These immune cells pernetrate and trigger an inflammatory response, driving LDL's to become "foam cells" and form a fatty streak, the earliest stage of atherosclorotic plaque. The plaque continues to grow and grows a fibrous cap. Substances released from fibrous cell are eventually dislodged allowing it to rupture, causing a blood clot which can block blood flow and trigger a heart attack."
Medications:
1) Plavix 75mg
Taken for: Anherothrombosis.... prevents platelet aggregation
Dental Implications: Block platelet aggregation and prolongs bleeding time. Under the authority of the patients physician, the patient should discontinue the use of the drug 5-10 days prior to their appointment.
Dental Contraindications: Hypersensivity to Plavix or any drug formulation.
2) Lisinopril/HCTZ 30/80
Taken for: High blood pressure
Dental Implications: none
Dental Contraindications: Monitor vitals. Can cause orthostatic hypotension
3) Nitroglycerin sub
Taken for: Angina
Dental Implications: xerostomia
Dental Contraindications: hypersensitivity to any drug formaulation
4) Aspirin 81mg
Taken for: mild blood thinner. Taken in conjunction with Plavix to help treat Atherosclerosis
Dental implications: prolonged bleeding time
Dental Contraindications: Hypersensitivity to aspirin or any drug formulation including NSAID
5) Lipitor 20mg:
Taken for: High cholestorol. Helps increase HDL and lower LDL
Dental implications:none
Dental Contraindications: Hypersensitivity to Lipitor or any drug components of the following. Secondary cause of hyperlipidemia should be ruled out before treatment and Liver function should be monitored.
6)Amoxicillan 2000mg
Taken for: Prophylactic medication prior to dental treatment
Dental implications: Prolonged used of penicillins can lead to development of oral candidiasis.
Dental Contraindications: Hypersensitivity to Amox. or penicillin.
Vitals: BP:142/89 , P: 101, R:13
Note* Individuals with Atherosclerosis often experience tachycardia and difficulty breathing
Assessments:
Extra oral: No atypical findingsIntra oral: Intra Oral: Has a 3x5 ulceration superior to #10 that is fibrous and inflammed. Differential: Irritation fibroma or localized gingival enlargement.TMD: NoneGIngival Description: Attached: generalized erythematous, edematous, glossy, and some loss of stippling in the anterior region. Free: generalized pink with localized erythematous in the areas between 8 & 9, 10 & 11, 12 & 13, 21 & 20, 22 & 23, and 24 & 25. Fills embrasures bulbous and shiny.Maximum opening: 47mm.Facial Profile: mesognathic Angles Classification: class I bilaterally with end to end bite on 10 & 23. #11 is lingually inclined.MBI: 95%BOP: 90% with generalized probing depths of 3 and 4's w/localized 5'sRecession: He has 1mm on 22 & 27.Furcations: NoneMobility: + on #'s 8 & 9, 24,25,26, and class I on #'s 6,7,10,11,12
Mucgingival Defects: None
ADA III
AAP: generalized moderate chronic periodontitis due to plaque and calculus and modified by smoking
MVC Calculus Code: medium
Critical Thinking:
Chief Complaint: Pt. states he is here because “ he has a tooth with a hole in it and just started bothering him 2 weeks ago. He is here today because he would like his teeth cleaned.”
Medical History/Systemic Health: Pt. smokes one pack of cigarettes a day and arteriosclerosis.
Oral Risk Factors: increased risk for perio disease, delayed healing time. Medications taken for heart disease increase risk of xerostomia and increase the risk for bleeding.
Dental Health Diagnosis:
Perio: uncontrolled
Caries: uncontrolled
Oral Hygiene: uncontrolled
Influencing Cultural and Social Factors: Pt. is elderly and retired and living on a fixed income so he may not have the financial ability to keep up his oral hygiene regimen and pt’s dexterity may be effected due to his age.
Dental Hygiene Care Plan
Oral Health Education/Strategies:
Oral Health Belief Model: Pt. is in the pre-contemplation stage of the transtheoretical model. He seems to have little to no interest in modifying his oral hygiene behaviors.
Recommended OHI: Introduce the Bass brushing technique, rubber tip, applicator, C shaped flossing, alcohol free mouth rinse, and smoking cessation
Instrument Selection: Catoni, Universals (McCall and Younger Good), 204, 6/7 sickle, 5/6 and 7/8
Anesthesia/Rationale: For Pt’s comfort
Reevaluations: Resolution of ulceration superior to #10.
Anticipated Treatment Outcomes: Decrease MBI and BOP’s by 50%, decrease 5mm pocket depths by 1mm.
Referrals: GP, perio, and Oral surgeon if ulcerations does not heal within two weeks.
Recall Interval: 3 months
Rationale: Pt. has uncontrolled perio, caries, and oral hygiene
Treatment Plan:
Med. consult sent out to cardiologist and physician prior to treatment
Appt 7- OHI ( continue to reinforce homecare) Smoking cessation. Scale LAS w/ carbocaine 3% w/o vasopressor (injections: IA). Subgingival irrigation with chlorohexadine, and flouride varnish.
Appt 8- OHI (continue to reinforce home-care techniques and make any adjustments if necessary). Smoking cessation. Scale LRS w/ carbocaine 3% w/o vasopressor (injections IA/B). Subgingival irrigation with chlorohexadine, and flouride varnish.
